Bonnie and Clyde (1967)
Dir. Arthur Penn

6.5/10 – I had high expectations going into this film, but I didn’t find that I enjoyed it nearly as much as I expected. I liked the historical aspect of it, and the fact that it was based on real people. I found the visual style overall very pleasing, particularly the costumes which were the standout for me. Faye Dunaway did a very convincing job at acting insane, but I just didn’t find the story particularly engaging, especially in the beginning.

The most memorable scene for me has to be when the police find out where the Barrel Gang had been hiding, and they ambush them with Buck being shot in the head in the process. This felt like a really important turning point in the film, and where I felt the story became far more interesting.
